About the Contests

University ePorfolio Excellence Awards

The University ePortfolio Excellence Award is judged on students' academic and personal accomplishments, creativity, and individuality -- as showcased on the ePortfolio platform. The award celebrates the union of academics, student life, and technology, and helps to build and expand the current ePortfolio program, challenging students to improve and personalize their portfolios in a unique way. There will be one grand prize winner and several runners-up, distributed into different categories such as college, academic year, career, study abroad, research, and more.

How do you make the most of your first-year experience? What activities have the greatest potential to motivate, stretch, and inspire you as a new student? What should first-yearstudents do to be fully engaged in campus life, discern their unique calling, and prepare themselves to be agents of change in today's world? The Dean's A-List is a set of must-do activities designed to help first-year students begin a yearlong process of contemplation and self-discovery guaranteed to result in both personal growth and transformation.

Open to students in the First Year of Studies only. For more information, click here!

The purpose of the ePortfolio is to demonstrate evidence of growth and progress toward the idea of the "21st Century DaVinci." Students will attend at least three Renaissance Circle workshops throughout the year (mandatory) and will then submit evidence of their experience on their ePortfolios to be evaluated on the basis of cross-disciplinary proficiency, creative literacy, and a playful sense of lifelong learning.
